How do you trigger the appearance of the spade....have watched Fen's video and my spade is definately not where Fen finds his
Also my Glowstones do not work....if i 'use' one all that happens is I have one less glowstone in my inventory

worked out what was going on, when i first tried to play my computer said i only had Newdark 1.22 so patched with tafferpatch 216
(newdark 1.23) and game played....but could not use glowlits, Garrett did not say anything when he approached the tomb, and just realised the grave digger did not trigger and so neither did the spade. So tried to re-patch with Newdark and noticed it installed at lightening speed. Have just booted up on my old computer and the game plays correctly.....it would appear my new computer is not correctlyor only partially installing tafferpatch, don't know why, so will post in that thread to see if someone can advise

Have you found the tokens yet? You'll need 4 of them and the book tells you in what order to drop them into the slot on the machine in that room. The clues in the text are related to the metal they are made out of, not necessarily their color.

And just in case anyone is not just trolling me and is actually serious, here's an explanation involving extremely simple logic and the act of learning how a game works, which I really shouldn't have to explain but I guess I do:

You're logic makes complete sense, Fen, and that little video is a nice explanation. Personally, I suspect that there are many players who have never actually noticed the difference in which types of objects are blockable and which aren't. That can be a blessing in some ways, because if you didn't know which did what, you'd probably be more likely to try everything in each case. Also, I don't think there was more than one person trolling you, but I'm glad you got the rant off your chest.

Spooky atmosphere and good riddles. I completely missed the scene with the guy getting killed by a haunt, only saw his dead body afterwards. Watching FenPhoenix going through the mission was very interesting, his approach to try out things is very similiar to mine ( I too ran around in vain on the graveyard trying to translate more inscriptions .

I can't get this one to work, don't know why. It crashes when I click Continue after the Objectives screen. There's an error message which I can't read because it disappears too quickly and is replaced by a Windows error message saying that Thief2 has to close.
